Answer:

243.911, or rounding to the nearest unit, 244.

Explanation:

For this, you need to know a concept in Trigonometry called "Law of Sines". This states that the ratio of any side of a triangle to the sine of the angle opposite is equal for all cases in that triangle.

Knowing this:


(200)/( \sin(48) ) = (x)/( \sin(65) ) \\ x \sin(48) = 200 \sin(65) \\ x = (200 \sin(65) )/( \sin(48) ) \\ x = 243.911
